The value 110 in the output represents the administrative distance (AD) of the information source. Administrative distance is used by Cisco routers to select the most trustworthy source of routing information for a particular route. Every routing protocol has a default administrative distance, and if more than one routing protocol is providing route information about a route, the protocol with the lowest AD will be selected to populate the routing table.
